• Protective bumpers. The height of these elements should not be lower than 5 cm. This is the optimal value to prevent the child from falling.
• Shelves. The more, the better. On such facilities, you can store personal hygiene items for a child, so the width of the shelves should be comfortable for parents so that they can put everything they need to care for the baby.

Coloring and design is one of the important points in choosing children's furniture. These criteria should be in harmony with the interior of the room.

The color of a wall table made of wood can be very different: from the lightest wood species (aspen, linden) to the darkest (bog oak, wenge), while the surface of the product from the visible side can have an original drawing or images of fairy and cartoon characters ...

When the table is open, such a design idea is difficult to discern, but when closed, the table can resemble real art. Plastic products can be of a variety of colors from calm, muted to bright, "acidic".

You can decorate the table yourself, just take into account how it will be used in the future.
